Olive Grove, Windhoek, Namibia - Explore & Book

"Eros numbers amongst Windhoek's best-heeled areas, a leafy suburb that catches the breezes which blow in from the surrounding savannah. An easy stroll from the city centre's shops and monuments and close to some of its best restaurants, this small guesthouse has long since won its laurels for being a secure and comfortable bolthole for business folk and travellers alike. Olive Grove's covered dining patio is the heart of the matter: the quality of the food and fine wines are all you'd expect, and more, of a small guesthouse. Additional treats come in the form of a small pool, a rooftop Jacuzzi and an in-house Wellness. Backed by consistently good care from its young staff, it's a cosy home atmosphere. The mood is engagingly informal and there are plenty of shaded spots to hunker down with a book: if you're beginning or ending your Namibian odyssey in Windhoek, make sure Olive Grove figures high on your list of places to stay.
